Bonjour,

Ce contournement a fonctionné pour moi mais n'est pas pratique pour les utilisateurs du domaine (qui n'ont pas le password admin local). Avez vous trouvé l'origine du problème (cela fonctionnait avant)?

Hello,

GUID stands for Globally Unique Identifier. In this case, the GUID I talk about is this one {10921475-03CE-4E04-90CE-E2E7EF20C814}

The Directory Opus issue is now fixed. Thank you.

However, how is inistart.tbs going to start since Adwcleaner removed the inistart.tbs string at the end of the shortcut?

Before cleaning: "C:\Program Files (x86)\TeraByte Unlimited\TeraByte OSD Tool Suite Pro\win\tbosdtw.exe"

After cleaning: "C:\Program Files (x86)\TeraByte Unlimited\TeraByte OSD Tool Suite Pro\win\tbosdtw.exe...

Hello,

The GUID seems to be related to IOBit, do you have this software installed on your computer ?

Hello,

@Dypsis,

The task has been removed from the database. The other entry is about an infected shortcut. If you select it, AdwCleaner will clean the shortcut but not deletes it.

I run AdwCleaner every few days.  Every time I do it detects, and deletes, the following:
